Detailed Answer:

Hi,


I have gone through your question and understand your concerns that you are having mouth ulcers with skin lesions. I would like to ask you few more details.

Is there any fever or lymph node enlargement ?


Based on your clinical details, it appears to be due to herpes (lip blisters, fever with lymph node enlargement) or drug reaction (sudden appearance of blisters could be due to medications or environmental allergen).


I suggest the following measures to overcome your mouth ulcers.

1. stop taking hard spicy foods.
2. Take anti allergic medication tab.citrizine 10mg one at bedtime.
3. Apply XXXXXXX (steroid ointment) orally thrice daily before food.
4. Multivitamin with zinc for 15 days.


In case of persistent symptoms, needs to see an ENT surgeon or primary physician to rule out other causes.


Hope this answers your question, if you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.


Wishing you good health.
